Please remove the picture of Trojnoj

The last pic on this page is that of a modern rendition of a hideous Soviet-era product called Trojnoj, or Triple Eau de Cologne, which, rather than being a historical product, is actually used by the poorest classes, as it costs about 25 cents a bottle, and, at that, is generally imbibed by alcoholics, rather than used as directed. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.195.186.25 (talk) 09:16, 9 May 2007 (UTC).

It's probably not good enough to use as a reference, but my mother once told me that, when she was growing up in inter-war France, French derelicts also used to drink it because of its cheapness and availability. PMLawrence (talk) 12:28, 9 March 2016 (UTC)
